Synopses & Reviews
Illustrated C# 2005 doesnt use the traditional dense prose format of most programming texts. Rather, it presents the C# programming language in a unique visual manner. The book uses three techniques to achieve this: concise text, tables that clarify and summarize language features, and frequent figures and diagrams. Each feature is also illustrated with concise, focused code samples.
The book starts with an overview of the .NET platform and the role played by C#, then quickly delves into the language. It covers the entire C# language, including new features added in C# 2.0 as well as the most complex topics. It's an ideal read if you?re a migrating C++ or VB programmer who already knows how languages work.
Despite its title, which might give the impression that it's a lightweight treatment of the language, this book is anything but. With its clean visual format, you?ll be able to learn the material more quickly and retain it better than you would with a typical C# 2005 book. Even experienced programmers may come away from it with a deeper understanding of the language.

Synopsis
C# is the most influential language on the .NET platform; it has established a solid user base over recent versions and with the recent release of .NET 2.0, the rate of migration to C# has never been faster. This book caters to that migrating audience. Developers already familiar with the basic concepts of programming often find traditional 'beginner's guides' heavy and difficult to read as they pages explaining concepts the reader already understands from their previous technology experience. Illustrated C# 2005 is an antidote to this. It packs the essentials of the C# language into just 350 pages, using an array of visual styles to provide a concise, clearly expressed quick reference to the core of the technology. It's a book that migrating developers can read in a day, conveying a sufficient grasp of the language to help find their feet and move confidently onto the .NET platform.
